No the Truth will set you free. Dogma means truth of faith.
The Thruth is the Person Jesus, our Savior and God.

I can't answer for everyone here of course but for myself I can honestly say no. I am of the firm belief that it is very important to be who you are all the time. Many people don't like that about me but they respect it. I am a Christian woman but I don't always think or act according to my religious denomination's tenets. Frankly I follow the Bible not the teachings of John Wesley. I consider myself affiliated with the United Methodist church but I do not consider myself a Methodist. I was raised in this church and I like the pastor that we have so I attend there. I wear blue jeans and tee-shirts and tennis shoes most Sundays and I go to the early more laid back charismatic service. It bothers my dad that at 48 I wear jeans to church but I am of the opinion that god really doesn't care what I wear; he's more concerned with what I do and how I think. To quote a very wise man(Popeye) "I yam what I yam and that's all that I yam!"

:
John 12:42-43
Nevertheless among the chief rulers also many believed on him; but because of the Pharisees they did not confess him, lest they should be put out of the synagogue:
43 For they loved the praise of men more than the praise of God.

The majority of humans wear "masks", of how they think they need to be in order to make it around others. The tough guy, the comedian, the cool dude. Few people are comfortable being themselves.
